There is plant cultivation planned in a space station. Japan participates in a plan in Asia, too. The plant has some kinds of candidates.
Sweet basil, Peppermint, Chinese holly basil.
We cultivated 30 days each. A fast-growing plant is necessary. We show the growth record of each plant. This result is changing by temperature and illumination.
I would like to show you our possibility of space agriculture.
